First published in 1988, A Chronology of Post War British Politics provides the first convenient chronological reference source for the modern British political scene. In clear and concise fashion, the book places all the major political events in the period since 1945 in a chronological order with a year-by-year coverage ending with the 1987 election. Care is taken to relate the major political events—elections, government changes, significant legislation, internal party developments—to social and economic developments. The chronology includes a coverage of internationals politics—particularly the decline of Britain as a major colonial power and relations with the EEC and the United States.

This volume, documenting the major changes in British politics which have occurred in the period from Attlee to Thatcher, will be of great use to both teachers and students of politics (who all too often have to treat political issues and institutions in isolation from the events which helped to shape them) and to the general reader.
